IMPORTANT NOTES •
Please note that: 3 is pronounced as (a) ()ع 7 as (h) ()ح
•
Most of questions and phrases are addressed to man. If you need to addressed to female, just ask any Emirati person around you.
•
If you don’t have any Emirati around you, join AlRamsa face to face or online courses.
•
Try to use it with all the Arabs. Just ignore when they say (Why you are learning Emirati dialect?! learn our dialect, it’s better).
•
Some of English translation doesn’t make sense. Accept that by asking Emiati/Arab about the exact meaning.
•
Try to answer all the questions in Emirati Arabic.
